What's the difference between a property management company and an HOA management company in Horry County?
A residential property management company works for individual landlords — finding tenants, collecting rent, and coordinating repairs on rental units. An HOA management company (community association manager) works for an association's board of directors: preparing budgets, collecting assessments, managing vendors, enforcing covenants, and keeping the association compliant with South Carolina law. South Carolina does not require a state license specifically for HOA or community association managers. Look for national credentials (CMCA, AMS, PCAM) held by the firm's managers. Some firms offer both services, but if you're hiring for an HOA or condo association, make sure the firm has real community association experience.
